They discuss their thoughts and impressions of working with Sean over the last few years. This video was taken during our First Annual Home Tour 2012. “You look at someone’s integrity, you look at the way they interact with you, how they stay in touch with you, you get the feeling that this is a gentleman who cares about his work, about the people he’s working with and just wants to do an excellent job.” Stanlee Stahl
